Tips before using

Initial setup:
Before the first use, clean the SS jar thoroughly. Put the jar into the housing in the right direction **(Figure 3),

hold the handle of the SS jar and turn it anti-clockwise slowly to the correct position. (Figure 4).

After putting in food ingredients, push the cover shaft into the handle groove (Figure 5) ,

then cover the SS jar. Press the cover down firmly (Figure 6)
to ensure the cover fasten is locked on the housing, then turn the switch clockwise (Figure 7).
**

Plug the power cord and switch on the electrical button on the back bottom of the housing **(Figure 8).

** Set time, temperature and speed on the control panel, and press “Start/Stop” to start the machine.

Removal of the Stainless Steel jar
Press the “Start/Stop” button to stop the machine, then turn the switch on top anti-clockwise and press the cover release button **(Figure 9)

until the latch unlocks. The jar cover shouldn’t be left standing upright (Figure 10) ;

instead you need to take it off after you’re finished (Figure 11).

Finally, hold the handle of the SS jar and turn the jar slowly clockwise from the (Figure 4)** position to the (Figure 3) position. The SS jar can then be taken off from housing.

LCD display
Plug in the machine and switch on the electrical button in the housing. If the SS jar is not placed correctly or the top switch is not switched correctly, the LCD will display as (Figure 12).

When the SS jar is placed correctly, and top switch is switched correctly, the LCD would display as (Figure 13).

Time, temperature and speed can be adjusted under this condition.
Note: For safety considerations, when cover is closed correctly, the top switch cannot be switched to the right place. Please do not switch it by force.

How to dismantle the blade assembly

Figure 14 is blade assembly. While reaching with one hand into the SS jar to hold the semi-circle section on blade assembly

(Figure 15), use the other hand to turn off the nut in an anti-clockwise direction (Figure 16), then pull out the blade assembly.

! Caution: The stirring blade is extremely sharp. To avoid injury, please do not touch the edge directly when dismantling. User should hold the upper part when removing or replacing the blade assembly to avoid the blade assembly falling off, possibly leading to an accident.

How to assemble the blade assembly
Reverse the process of dismantle blade assembly.
Usage and how to use the accessories

1. SS jar cover: To cover the jar, the sealed ring inside can prevent food, soup or vapor spillage; When assembled, the seal ring “ESTA CARA A LA TAPA ↑, FACE UP ↑” warning words should face towards you (see below Figure 17).

Otherwise, the liquid may spill **(Figure 18).

**

2. Measure cup: To cover the jar cover and also to measure liquid food.

3. Basket: Multi-function accessory. Can filter fruit juice and vegetable juice, also can cook vegetables such as potatoes, tomatoes, onions… etc.
   It is very easy to remove the basket. Use the spatula to hook the middle part of the basket handle as shown in (Figure 19).
   
   

4. Spatula: Use to scrape ingredients from the SS jar’s inner wall. When filtering juice, it can also be used to fix the basket, and at the same time to ensure separating the juice from the solid ingredients. (Figure 20)
   

5. Butterfly (must use with Blade guard together): Continuous blending can ensure optimum mixing, and prevent sticking when heating milk, making butter pudding or fruit sauces.
   To assemble and dismantle the butterfly, see Figure21.
   
   To assemble the butterfly, see Figure 22
   

6. Using the two half-circle of the blade guard as a guide, insert the butterfly covering the blade guard, and then rotate down clockwise. To dismantle it, hold the SS jar handle with one hand while the other hand holds the blade guard top to pull it off in force.
   (Attention: When using the butterfly, the speed has to be set to a maximum of 4. Blade guard: Blend & mix soft or liquid foods. Method with using or assembling the blade guard: Before assembling, the user should take off the blade assembly from the SS jar, and then put the blade guard covering in the top surface of the blade. While twisting slightly down, assemble them together in the SS jar and screw down the bottom nut (the blade guard is used under speed 4).

7. Steaming pot: Includes the steaming pot, the steaming disc, and the steaming cover. Could be used to steam large quantity food with similar tastes, such as vegetables, potatoes, thickly sliced meats, sausages and fish… etc.

8. Caution: please pay attention to avoid being scalded by vapor.

How to use the steaming pot in the correct way
Step 1: Put at least 500g water in the SS jar (Figure23).

Figure 23

Step 2: Please assemble the SS jar into position on the unit (Figure 24),

Figure 24

and then put food (such as ice and potato) in filter. Put cover on and ensure the bottom is fastened well and twisted into the right place.

When putting food in the steaming pot, place the easily cooked food on the bottom, and the not so easily cooked food on top. If necessary, the steaming disc could be used to put food on.
Step 3: Cover the steaming pot (Figure 25) so that steaming air won’t be released.

Important reminder:

• When the steaming pot is in use, please keep children well away from machine and notify them of the dangers of the steam.

Operation: Set up the time and steaming temperature on the control panel and press the “Start/Stop” button. The cooking will start accordingly. Steam vapors go to steaming pot through holes in the stainless steel jar cover, and the food will be cooked.

When opening the steam cover, please be careful to put it slightly angled, so that the hot steam vapors spill out rearward, and cooled water can flow into the steaming pot. Take off the cover and put it on the table, then take up the steaming pot and hold it for several seconds. Let cooled water drip into the stainless steel jar cover, and put the steaming pot in the steaming cover.

Dough pattern

Use this pattern to make yeast dough or bread dough (LCD display as figure 27)

Operation: Set up time first, then press the “Dough” button. Finally, press the “Start/Stop” button. This pattern will make the machine operate in the pre-set program, working in 3 speed for 3 second, then stop for 4 seconds and then repeat.

Set up the time to 3 minutes, press “Dough” button, and then press the “Start/Stop” button. The machine will work under its pre-set program. Following the procedure, put 300g water slowly into the stainless steel jar (all the amount should be poured in within one minute). Dough will be done within 3 minutes.

Note: When you use dough pattern, the stainless steel jar should be dry before you put the flour to prevent it from sticking to the jar during the blending process. The flour mustn’t exceed 500g, the water shouldn’t exceed 300g, and the set-up time shouldn’t exceed 3 minutes. The proportion between flour and water is 5:3 and the results may be improved if you add some extracted oil into the flour.

Caution: Remove the blade after dough completion; please be cautious to avoid injuries to your hand by the sharp blade.
This machine may move when making dough, so please place it on a steady heat- resistant table, in a safe distance from the edges to avoid falling.
Please do not use the machine without the guards in place, and ensure they don’t fall off during the operation.

Turbo (Pulse) button

No need to set up time and stirring speed, just press the “Turbo (Pulse)” button continuously, and the machine would operate in max speed. The machine will stop when the button is released. This button is used to crash hard food such as ice cubes.
Note: “Turbo” mode will not function under dough pattern.
Caution: If you use Turbo (Pulse) for heated food, the weight of food should not exceed 1000g. The measuring cup should be positioned on the stainless steel jar’s cover to avoid scalding by food spillage.
